This English man said to his friend: "Do the Cantonese know how stupid they look when they eat this yellow fruit like a monkey?" Unexpectedly, that Cantonese did know English and got very angry. He beat that English man with the 香蕉 over his head and yelled:" 笨吖嗱?! 笨吖嗱?!" (Stupid, huh?! Stupid, huh?!). And That's how 香蕉 got named Banana in English. -- (笨吖嗱 is pronounced 'ban6 a1 na2' ) | |
